well it all depends on the tadpole and what he will turn into and what is his stage now. but it sounds pretty good so far.

Well i have no clue of what frog or toad the tadpoles(i have four tadpoles) will turn into i just got them out of my creek.They are not that big and its starting to get into the forties and i read somewhere that tadpoles stop growth if it gets to cold is that right?



again thank you for any help

Well i don’t think its true of what i know of my tank i got my tads in is from 70-80F and they do fine but YES they can stop themselfs from developing at anytime if they feel it is not the time or they are growing to fast and not fully devolped. post a few pictures of your tad if you can

sorry i can’t post pics cause i can’t get to photo bucket or any other sight to post pics .What i mean by its getting into the forties is that I’m keeping them outside but i think I’m going to bring them inside if its ok with my mom.One last question when the change into frogs sense it will be winter can i just feed them fishing worms


thank you for your help
